Did this gay pastor fake a cake with an anti-gay decoration? Whole Foods thinks so.
Anyone who has paid a visit to the Whole Foods flagship store in Austin, knows the location is the gem in the pricey grocery chain’s organic crown. As one reviewer once put it: “The 80,000-square-foot market, bar, eatery, makeup counter and pick-up joint (we suspect) makes our local branches look like the neighborhood 7-11.”
But one visitor to the Austin location says he was not so enthusiastic about a recent trip. An openly gay pastor in the city where Whole Foods was founded has filed a lawsuit against the chain, claiming it sold him a cake that read “Love Wins F-g.”
But commenters on social media wondered why the pastor didn’t immediately notice the anti-gay slur, accusing him of altering the cake, as did Whole Foods, which countersued, claiming that the pastor made “fraudulent” accusations.
In a video posted last week, Jordan Brown of Austin’s Church of Open Doors said he ordered a cake from Whole Foods meant to read “Love Wins” — a slogan associated with the movement to legalize same-sex marriage. But when he picked up the cake April 14, it had a quite different message, he said.
“When I got into my vehicle, I looked inside and saw they had wrote ‘Love Wins F-g’ on it,” Brown said, holding a receipt he said was from the cake. “You can see it nice and clear. Also, it is still in a sealed box. As you see, I have not opened up this box yet.”

So he saw it once he got into his car when he exited the store. Wonder why he did not walk right back into the store and confront the bakery instead he went home and made a video.
He could have made a video from his car at the moment he supposedly noticed it.
Composting his video with store surveillance video, plainly the label was moved. Also plain is there’s a huge window on the box - there’s no way he didn’t see the slur if it was there.
Ah yes, I remember the Clint Howard Star Trek. He and Kirk drank tranya.
They had a story on the local news this morning in Austin and they blurred out the word fag. I just thought that was a little over the top.
It is merely a WORD people it can not hurt you.
sick.
Thank you. I can’t believe that even “conservatives” take this crud seriously, when the whole lot of the sodomites and lezzies are vile.
Sadly yes.
It would be interesting to find out if this guy bought a tube of icing with the cake.
He’d probably be stupid enough to do it.
The store would have the records.
Then, if and when he is found lying, his name and his church should be drug through the mud as an example.
He has been in a couple of Austin Powers movies.
Ghetto Lotto attempt. Nothing more.
founding the Church of Open Doors two years ago....

Yesterday when this story broke, some quick witted FReeper correctly renamed this as the Church of Open (Back) Doors.
NAAMBLA has been around for decades. As far as bestiality - well there’s always the muzzies.
He might also learn something about homosexuality, too.
Apparently, the employee accused is LBGTA, but the guy ordering the cake didn’t know that.
It looks like he’s going into the bakery in search of a lawsuit, and when the cake came back perfect, he defaced it so he could still sue.
I think you’re right about the different thickness of the word. It looks to be a slightly different tint as well.
“Church of the Open Door.” The mind reels.
LOL!
There is no way that he could have missed that word through the cellophane lid before he purchased it. He would have stopped right there and demanded to know about that word before he even left the store. I hope they throw the book at him.
You would think he would inspect the cake as he picked it up in the bakery especially for such an emotional occasion for him.
I mean if you were buying a wedding, anniversary or birthday cake would you not look at it as soon as it was handed to you?
